Department of Labor spikes Trump apprenticeship program detested by unions
Fox News
The Biden administration is set to axe a Trump-era labor policy that eased regulations on apprenticeship programs.
Sen. Richard Burr, R-N.C., in a letter to Labor Secretary Marty Walsh obtained exclusively by Fox News Digital, wrote that the Biden administration’s criticisms of IRAP are illegitimate and promote a "false narrative" on labor regulations.

"I am disappointed DOL has taken away choices and limited high-quality training opportunities for American workers," Burr wrote. "IRAPs are nimble, able to adapt to changing work practices, and match skills needed for modern industries."
